Nearfield binaural synthesis and ambisonics [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2007 Ambisonic encodings can be rendered binaurally, as well as for speaker arrays. This process is developed for general high-order Ambisonic encodings of soundfields containing near as well as far sources. For sufficently near sources an error is identified, resulting from the limited field of validity of the freefield harmonic expansion.

Assessing the ecological validity of soundscape reproduction in different laboratory settings [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2022 The ever-growing body of soundscape research includes studies conducted both in everyday life environments and in laboratory settings. Yet, laboratory settings differ from in-situ and therefore may elicit different perceptions. The present study explores

Evaluating the Accuracy of the Ambisonic Reproduction of Measured Soundfields [PDF]
, 2014 A spherical microphone array can encode a measured soundfield into its spherical harmonic components. Such an array will be subject to limitations on the highest spherical harmonic order it can encode and encoding accuracy at different frequencies ...

Evaluation of Ambisonics Decoding Methods with Experimental Measurements [PDF]
, 2014 Ambisonics is a sound reproduction technique based on the decomposition of the sound field using spherical harmonics. The truncation in the number of coefficients used to recreate the sound field leads to reproduction artifacts which depend on the ...
